The Awesome Future of Tow Trucking Has Finally Arrived (Whew)

Of all things you'd never think of as cool, towing a truck is probably up there.

That's all about to change, though, thanks to this pretty nifty video, which comes courtesy of Reddit.

Watch the wizardry of this tow truck in Turkey.

This sure beats the heck out of the mess that is a tow truck doing its thing in the U.S. where it clogs traffic and seems to take forever.

And, yes, let's be honest -- unless a tow truck is shaped like KITT from Knight Rider and spews beer when it back up, no one is happy to see it. With that said, this is still a much more efficient way to get a car off the road, whether it's illegally parked or it's got a dead battery.
